Abstract
Description
- This application is a continuing application of International Application No. PCT/EP2014/000800, filed under 35 U.S.C. §371 on Mar. 25, 2014, and claiming benefit to European Patent Application No. 13 001 514.2, filed on Mar. 25, 2013, each of which is incorporated in its entirety herein. The international application was published in English on Oct. 2, 2014, as WO 2014/154351 A1 under PCT Article 21(2).
- The invention relates to a gas cooler for a medium voltage switchgear assembly with a gas compartment, comprising a housing with a hollow body for accommodating the heated gas, which flows through the medium voltage switchgear assembly and is heated by at least one heat-generating current conductor,
- Medium voltage switchgear assemblies may be provided for rated voltages between 1 kV and 72 kV. High voltage switchgear assemblies may be provided for rated voltages above 72 kV. Switchgear assemblies are utilized in order to distribute an energy flow and to ensure a safe operation within a power net. In order to control the energy flow a switchgear assembly may provide several functions, such as disconnecting, closing and grounding.
- Switchgear assemblies may be categorized in gas insulated devices and air insulated devices. In general, air insulated devices may need more space when installed compared to gas insulated devices, since the gas, such as sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) or others, provides improved insulating characteristics compared to air. These differences may influence the dimensions of the switchgear assembly and therefore gas insulated switchgear assemblies may provide a more compact design.
- At nominal currents above 1250 A ohmic losses in gas insulated switchgear assemblies are reaching a level, where special measures have to be taken for supporting the heat transfer. These are for example the use of heat sinks inside the gas compartment, conductors with higher cross section and/or painted conductors.
- At higher levels, depending very much on the general design of the switchgear assembly, this is no longer sufficient for the heat transfer, because the heat has to pass the housing of the encapsulations. The surface of the housing is defined by the encapsulated volume and in most designs made of plain sheet metal.
- According to the common knowledge of a skilled person a gas cooler for a medium voltage switchgear assembly has plain cooling areas with internal and external ribs, mainly made of aluminum. Normally the gas cooler consists of an additional hollow compartment, which is open to one side, with internal and external ribs, being connected to a switchgear gas compartment. The ribs are either part of the housing or connected to the housing as a separate part.
- The
document EP 1 496 534 B1 discloses a high-power switch with at least one switch pole for guiding and switching an electric current which flows in one current flow direction when the switch is in the closed state. The at least one switch pole contains along a longitudinal axis an inner conductor which carries the current and an outer conductor which is connected to earth potential and carries a return current in the opposite direction to the current. The outer conductor is in the form of a housing, which surrounds the inner conductor. A cooling rib arrangement which contains cooling ribs is provided on the outer conductor and is arranged at a radial distance from the inner conductor. - Furthermore, the
document EP 2 157 590 B1 relates to an encapsulated high-voltage switch, containing a heat-generating current conductor, a metal encapsulation surrounding the current conductor, and a cooling element with a cooler. The cooling element is fixed on a part of the encapsulation that is embodied as a mounting plate. Furthermore the cooling element has cooling ribs arranged outside the encapsulation. In a section of the cooler that is embodied as a cooling block, at least a portion of the cooling ribs is arranged parallel to the mounting plate and is held on a heat distributor fixed to the mounting plate and embodied as a plate in such a way that on both sides of the heat distributor in each case one of two groups of cooling channels arises, in which the cooling channels are in each case arranged in the manner of a sandwich and orientated in a manner inclined relative to the horizontal. - An aspect of the invention provides a as cooler for a medium voltage switchgear assembly, the gas cooler comprising: a gas compartment including a housing including a hollow body configured to accommodate heated gas, wherein the heated gas flows through the medium voltage switchgear assembly, wherein the heated gas is heated by at least one heat-generating current conductor, wherein the hollow body of the housing is divided at least partly in several parallel hollow bodies, shaped as fins, or wherein the fins are directly arranged on the housing.
- The foregoing and other aspects of the invention will become apparent following the detailed description of the invention, when considered in conjunction with the enclosed drawings.

FIG. 2 a is a perspective view of the gas cooler inFIG. 1 , -
FIG. 2 b shows a longitudinal cut of the gas cooler inFIG. 2 a, -
FIG. 3 a is a perspective view of another embodiment of the gas cooler, and -
FIG. 3 b shows a transverse cut of the gas cooler inFIG. 3 a. - The invention relates to a gas cooler for a medium voltage switchgear assembly with a gas compartment, comprising a housing with a hollow body for accommodating the heated gas, which flows through the medium voltage switchgear assembly and is heated by at least one heat-generating current conductor,
- An aspect of the invention provides a gas cooler for a medium voltage switchgear assembly, which shows a geometry for increasing the surface of a housing of the gas cooler significant, without using ribs or heat sinks.
- According to an aspect of the invention the hollow body of the housing is divided at least partly in several parallel hollow bodies, which are shaped as fins, or that the fins are directly arranged on the housing. As a result, the number of heat transferring surfaces is significantly increased. In each fin there is heat transfer by convection and radiation. Each fin has two large heat transferring surfaces which are arranged parallel to each other. Thereby, a hollow interior is created, in which heated gas is filled.
- An important embodiment of the invention in general is, the fins are implemented into a cover plate or a partial housing (4), which is not integral part of the switchgear assembly (2), but separate, and therefore detachable and closable part of switchgear assembly.
- This is important in comparison to the
EP 1 237 246 A1, because in that state of the art document folded side walls are used and not hollow bodies. So that the cooling structure is integral part of the switchgear housing, which has disadvantages. - A larger distance between two fins may improve the cooling condition at the large heat transferring surface of the fins, but if the space between two fins increases, the number of fins has to decrease for maintaining the same dimension of the gas cooler. The dimensions, especially a width of the fins and the distance between two fins, are defined by the internal and external gas flow and by limitations of the production system.
- Moreover, the fins are made of plain sheet metal. Thus, the wall thickness of the fins is low and the heating and cooling fast. Furthermore, the manufacturing of the fins is simple and time saving.
- Preferably, the fins are coated for increasing heat radiation. The coating may be paint or metal coating. Furthermore, the fins are coated as well inside as outside. A single-sided coating is possible as well.
- The gascooler is arranged vertically or horizontally, or even the opening to the gasroom are arranged on the bottom side or laterally.
- According to a preferred embodiment, the fins continue or exceed the geometry of the gas compartment. Continuing the geometry of the gas compartment results in a compact total dimension of the gas cooler. Exceeding the geometry of the gas compartment may improve the cooling conditions.
- According to a further preferred embodiment the gascooler is directly connected to the surface of the gas compartment or to an additional compartment. A direct connection supports the gas flow to the fins. It is possible as well to realize the connection by welding.
- Therefore it is especially advantageous if the plain sheet metal is steel or stainless steel. Nevertheless it is possible to form the fins of aluminium, because of the lower thermal resistance. Even though the thermal resistance of steel and stainless steel in comparison to aluminum is higher, the much easier manufacturing, especially the welding process makes steel and stainless steel more advantageous than aluminium.
- Furthermore, the medium voltage switchgear assembly comprises at least one gas cooler, which is mountable connected to the medium voltage switchgear assembly. A mountable connection may be realized by screws and other connection means, which allowed to disconnect the gas cooler from the switchgear assembly. Furthermore, the medium voltage switchgear assembly is preferably gas insulated.
- According to a further preferred embodiment the gas cooler is fixed connected to the medium voltage switchgear assembly. A fixed connection may be realized by rivets or welding.
- The reference symbols used in the drawings, and their meanings, are listed in summary form in the list of reference symbols. All drawings are schematic.
